Just lobbed my first summer league bets into the void.

Sixers ML
Griz ML
Magic -3

The Magic were up 4 with 5 seconds left in OT and gave up a meaningless bucket. No cover. Lame. Luckily, my 4-team parlay hit so I came out about $6 ahead for the night. Ha.

I decided to bet against all of my rooting interests today:
Celtics -5.5
Dodgers ML
Steelers ML (thursday)

Those meaningless buckets/TDs/goals always sting.

I'm about to check the lines for tonight out. I'm staying away from the Phils - just want to enjoy it.

Jalen Hurts is currently only +3300 for MVP.  Tied for 13th with Matt Stafford and Derrick Henry.

I like Saquan at +8000.

Good run this week has cooled off tonight  - have the White Sox and they just blew a 7-4 lead. Two run bombs by both Judge and Stanton.

Yuck.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I take that back.

White Sox walk it off!!!!

[PhillyPhreak54]

Haha and it was Tim Anderson. I bet him (and Jimenez) to Homer.

Gotta love that.

I whipped out a nice fat 1 for 8 on my bets last night. Gross.

Luckily, I got my Sixers to Win Summer League +2700 bet in before Fanduel realized what it had done and took the whole option to bet on summer league winners down. Haha. Come on Maxey! Bring that shtein home.

what's on tap for tonight?

Hope that Sixers bet hits - even if it is a $5 bet...thats a nice return!

Tonight's bets are dumber than last night's, if that's even possible.

Jazz ML +134
Pistons ML +106
Stros ML -130
Ohtani and Altuve 3+ hits +200

This has 0-fer written all over it.

Jazz ML +134 means what?

Does every one of these bets have to hit for you to win or are these one-offs?

I think it's a cry for help, Dio.  And we're just the guys to provide it.

It means that I am betting on the jazz to win, no spread consideration.

In this case I parlayed and round robin'ed all three games (the fourth bet is just standing on its own) in addition to betting them individually. Which means I have one three-game parlay 3 two game parlays and three individual bets. If two of the three hit I'll come out modestly ahead. If all three hit I come out WAY ahead.

Good luck!

I'll probably hate myself but I took the Phillies -160 ML, Wheeler over 7k's , Indians ML and Brewers -1.5 RL

Betting on the Phils definitely seems like an exercise in self flagellation but good luck!
